                                      Superintendent's Message January 2010      Top of Page

As we move into the second phase of the 2009-2010 school term, we maintain the strong belief that the future of our country rests in our children; their education is our greatest responsibility! We continue to actively support our teachers and students in the implementation of the K-12 standards based curriculum. To that end, all of our schools are now fully engaged in professional learning communities (PLC). Our PLC teams focus on student achievement by identifying essential standards, developing common formative assessments, and building teacher capacity to incorporate day-by-day, lesson-by-lesson, formative assessment techniques in the everyday work of teaching.

Our work together requires teamwork, collaboration, communication and dedication. We believe that commitment to and implementation of continuous learning lead to improved student performance. We believe in the power of personal connections and relations between staff, students, parents and the community.

I am fortunate to be part of a professional community that approaches its work with optimism and a tremendous sense of possibility. Great organizations like ours have clarity of purpose, common goals, shared commitment, and are results-oriented. We will continue to embrace this notion.

In closing, I want to reaffirm our District priority to support and educate our students. Despite the difficult economic times, our students are learning, they are safe, and they are developing a sense of social awareness by contributing to our community. It is truly a pleasure serving the Orland community.

                                  Sincerely, Chris von Kleist
